COLDTYPE UPDATE - SEPTEMBER 18:

Columnist John Pilger wonders why the western media draws such a strong
distinction between 'their' - ie Muslim - terror and our 'own' - ie state -
terror; while George Monbiot makes his case for the abolition of fox hunting
in Britain (find both in our Columnists section). In OtherVoices, we've got
a new essay from William Rivers Pitt on the Bin Laden fairytale; a couple of
pieces from Bill Berkowitz on the hi-jacking of 9/11 and Pakistan's warm
relationship with the USA; and newcomer Lucy Dalglish points out the dangers
to freedom of information from the Bush administration.

PLUS: Seven Days in New York City: On the Outside at the Republican National
Convention. Read David Rubinson's 12-page diary covering the events you
didn't see on the mainstream TV coverage. Uri Avneri (Behind The Wall) looks
at the increasing influence of right wing religious leadership in the
Israeli army; Fred Bridgland (OtherVoices) explains why Mark Thatcher, son
of former British PM Margaret Thatcher, had a bad weekend in Cape Town;
Norman Solomon (Mediabeat) on armchair warriors; Greg Palast (OtherVoices)
on those amazing Saudis; Bill Berkowitz (OtherVoices) on the assault rifle
ban. You'll find all of these and much more on our Columnists' home-page.

NEXT WEEK : LOOK OUT FOR OUR 80-PAGE EXCERPT FROM JOHN PILGER'S NEW BOOK,
TELL ME NO LIES: INVESTIGATIVE JOURNALISM AND ITS TRIUMPHS - DON'T MISS IT
